The Information Sciences group and the Center for Nonlinear Studies at the Los Alamos National Laboratory have an opening at a postdoctoral level. The research will involve elements of machine learning and graph theory. It will be a part of a multi-disciplinary project in high-performance simulation that is based on a dynamic graph modeling of physical processes.


Candidates are expected to have strong analytical and programming skills. The successful applicant should have a strong publication record and will be expected to publish results in high impact peer-reviewed journals and conferences. This is a long-term appointment (up to three years), so candidates who can commit to a longer time frame will be preferred. However, candidates available for shorter periods may be considered for internships.


Qualifications:


(1) A PhD in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or Mathematics;

(2) Research-level expertise in at least one of the following: machine learning, graph theory;

(3) Strong programming skills;

(4) Demonstrated ability to publish research in peer-reviewed journals or conference proceedings in the areas of machine learning and/or graph theory;

(5) Excellent oral presentation and writing skills

(6) Willingness to work in interdisciplinary project teams and learn about other fields
